Applicant's Response to Council's FA

c. According to the Driveway and Parking Code, a dwelling unit must allow for at least one
covered parking space. Additionally, food and drink outlets require one parking space per 20m?
of use area and outdoor business area, excluding kitchen and food storage areas.

As indicated in the revised plans, the combined use area and outdoor terrace equals a total of
40m?. Consequently, the total number of car spaces required onsite is 3, with one of them being

covered. It is important to highlight that the site fully complies with the minimum parking

requirements outlined in the Driveway and Parking Code.

Information Required by Council

Issue — Access

During a site inspection, Council officers identified that the existing site access is excessive in width and does
not comply with current Council standards (RS-049 & RS-050). The section of driveway that accesses the rear
carpark is narrow, Council is concerned that drivers unfamiliar with the site may be unable to enter in a forward
gear, manoeuvre on-site, and exit the site in a forward gear without failure.

Information Required

5. Provide additional detail relating to the proposed access. The additional detail must be prepared by a

suitably qualified person and include, but not be limited to:

a. provide comment on the existing driveway crossover and demonstrate what works can reasonably
be done to achieve compliance with RS-049; and

b. demonstrate that a B99 vehicle is able to enter the site ina forward gear, access and manoeuvre

the rear carpark, and exit the site in a forward gear without failure.

Applicant's Response

Please review the revised plans crafted by Hiller for a comprehensive visualisation. These demonstrate the

following key aspects:
e Smooth and efficient vehicular movements across the site.

e Seamless accommodation of both B99 and B85 vehicles as they enter in forward gear, navigate the
rear car park with effortless maneuvers, and exit the premises without encountering any

complications or setbacks.

Deliberate attention has been given to designing vehicle access and maneuvering options that ensure
uninterrupted traffic flow and secure navigation for all vehicle types. Adhering to these plans will enable the
site to effortlessly accommodate a variety of vehicle sizes and movements, prioritising utmost ease and

effectiveness.

The objective of the applicant is to establish a parking environment that is not only user-friendly but also

convenient for customers, staff, residents and visitors.
